Flights to North Ferrisburgh, Vermont from NT$6,935

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well organized. We've made a list of handy tips that will get your North Ferrisburgh vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are good options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll arrive looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and pick flat, enclosed footwear like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The secret is to be prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to North Ferrisburgh in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
